Could My Ribs Be Causing Problems?

I have a problem on my ribs

1 Answer
Dr. Deep Chakraborty

Orthopaedic Surgery

Answered on 8th Aug '24

From what you are saying, you might have problems with your ribs. This can result from a fall, a strong impact, or even too much coughing. Symptoms include pain in the area when you breathe or move, tenderness, and maybe swelling too. One way of helping is by, of course, rest. Stay away from the activities that you do, which cause more pain. Ice may affect swelling too. Also, pain meds provide some relief. See an orthopedist if the pain continues.

I am 34 years old,myself and my partner was kn a car crash last year march. We have physio (thunk it was 8 or 10 sessions) I had stiffness in my neck but after the physio it was fine. Last month my left arm from my shoulder to my elbow really hurts,I struggle to lift my left arm up and sometimes I have to use my right arm to move my left arm as its really painful.

Female | 34

You may have adhesive capsulitis, which is also referred to as a frozen shoulder. This usually occurs after an injury in the shoulder has taken place such as a car accident for example. Pain and stiffness are common symptoms of this condition thereby making it difficult for one to move the affected arm or arms. To alleviate these signs try gentle stretching exercises coupled with warm compresses applied to the painful area.

Why do i get gout when i stop drinking alcohol

Male | 55

Alcohol is supposed to be predisposing factor for gout. But it's not scientific proven that gout will only flare if you quit the alcohol.

When can you walk on a sprained ankle?

Male | 43

Ideally no. 

Ankle sprain mainly involves ATFL ligament. its better to immobilise the ankle for 6 weeks and if still pain persists, then will need MRI to plan further course of management

Why is indomethacin preferred for gout

Its not like that. Any selective Cox2 inhibitor will do the job.

Male | 42

The discomfort you're experiencing might be connected to your meniscus tear surgery. Sometimes after surgery, our bodies can surprise us by reacting in a way that is not expected. I suggest supportive footwear, practicing targeted stretches for the foot, and taking a vitamin D supplement.

Ma'am cat has bitten to my father in left leg what to do for treatment tell me

Male | 40

The foremost thing is to wash the wound with warm water and soap. Following this, put the dressing on the wound using a new bandage. Check the area around the bite for redness, swelling, warmth, and pus. Each of these might be infection symptoms. You need to visit your healthcare provider if you observe these signs. The main treatments for infections at home are wound cleaning and dressings.
